If he's a Visa overstay (most likely thing) then being detained for deportation and not having any legal representation is normal. That's a civil violation that's processed administratively, it's not remotely Trumpian fascism. That's every administration since the 1980's immigration reforms.
I'm obviously against all that and immigration system in general, but none of these idiots have ever bitched about it before in their lives until they heard it was affecting some privileged "genocide" protester.
I'm not at all familiar with immigration law but can people lose their green card for simply being suspected of a crime? I don't think he's been formally charged. I think they're basing their case that he's suspected of crimes. Therefore he can lose his green card.
Clarification if you know more about this stuff. I'm out of my depth when it comes to immigration laws.
